Chapter 550 Flying snow, it's hard to enter the city Scatter flowers, Xin~ Take two pieces of chocolate and add more!!
The baggage convoy finally arrived outside Hansha City on this day.
"Where is Cold Sand City?"
Du Wei's whole body was shrunk in the graceful red fox fur, only a small head was exposed, staring intently at the magnificent city under the hillside.
Built on a mountain, it is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and it must be because of this that the King of England and King Kang Lok were able to hold out for months without being broken by the enemy.
"The princess of the world be careful, don't go far and be discovered by the spies of Beifan." Wuxin was dressed in a black beast wool coat, and his gestures were even more graceful.
"It's all the soldiers and horses from the north, how are we going to enter the city?" Linglong and Yu'er looked down the mountain and wondered.
Unintentionally, his eyes flickered, and a trace of anxiety flashed under Du Wei's eyes, and he suddenly smiled: "General Xiahou has his own ideas for breaking the army and passing on the message, so why worry about us." ”
Linglong and Yu'er nodded again and again, "The unintentional son is reasonable, Miss, it's windy and cold here, let's go back to the camp." ”
Du Wei silently looked at the cold sand city below the mountain, and the sky suddenly fell with a faint piece of snow, rolled up with the wind, and stuck to her eyelashes.
"It's snowing." The two maids were still children's hearts, and they couldn't help but cry out happily when they saw this.
Du Wei raised her head, and the gray sky sprinkled more and more snowflakes, layer upon layer, like peach blossoms in April, drifting away with the wind......
When I returned to the camp, I saw Li Xijun running towards me from a distance.
"Sister Wei'er, when will we meet Shizi?"
Du Wei laughed secretly in her heart, this child was obviously worried about Tsing Yi, but she only asked when she would see the prince of Nanwang every day.
"Once the siege of Cold Sand City is lifted, we will be able to meet him." Du Wei explained.
Li Xijun looked a little disappointed, "Like now, when will we be able to enter Cold Sand City." ”
"It should be soon......" In fact, Du Wei is not sure, but they don't have enough time, they must get in touch with the king and others in the city as soon as possible, and they must get help from the city when they enter the city.
"Does the King already know we're here?" Li Xijun asked.
"Perhaps, the city of cold sand should send scouts out."
"But with so many enemy troops right now, can their scouts really get out of the city?" Li Xijun's question is exactly what Du Wei is worried about.
As they were talking, they overheard a commotion in the camp and turned their heads to look, but saw several soldiers carrying one person and running quickly towards the Chinese army's tent.
Du Wei and Li Xijun stood in place and watched them pass by.
There was a man lying on the stretcher, his face was covered in blood, his soft armor and clothes were soaked with blood, and he had been frozen due to the cold weather, and the man was like wearing a blood-colored armor of Yin Hong.
"What's wrong with this person?" Li Xijun dragged a passing soldier and asked.
"This man was discovered by the Northern Army......," the man sighed, "This is the sixth person sent out today." ”
Du Wei watched as those men carried the seriously wounded and dying Tanma into the tent of the Chinese army, and after a while, they were carried out again and placed in the open space outside the camp.
The cold wind blew, rolling up the remnants of snow piled up on the ground and covering the white cloth on the corpses, and as far as the eye could see, six corpses were parked side by side in the clearing, and the atmosphere in the camp seemed extremely bleak and cold.
In the tent, General Xiahou's face was gloomy, staring at the map in front of him.
Adjutant General Tianzi Mo waved his hand to the herald below: "Send someone to investigate again!" Be sure to send the news to Cold Sand City before it gets dark today! ”
After the herald went out, the other soldiers in the tent were worried: "The mighty general will lead the army to the enemy's rear in the day after tomorrow, and if we don't enter the city again, we will miss the war!" ”
General Xiahou clenched his fists tightly, he didn't know that time was pressing, but now that Hansha City was in front of him, they couldn't send the news into the city, and their ten thousand horses couldn't stop on the mountain outside the city for a long time.
If the enemy army in the north found them here, they were afraid that a fierce battle would inevitably be avoided, and they would not only have to protect the baggage transported, but most importantly, the princess.
It was getting late, but the snow was getting heavier.
"Miss, it's cold outside, let's go back." Linglong urged, Wuxin followed them not far behind, and since they arrived at the camp outside Hansha City, he and Liu Wuyan took turns to follow Du Wei's side, almost to the point of not leaving an inch.
Du Wei shrunk into the thick fox fur, watching the wind and snow whirl from afar, blowing towards the side of Cold Sand City.
"Haven't you sent the news to the city yet?" Du Wei asked.
“…… No. Wuxin said lightly, with some helplessness in his voice, "The northern soldiers are coming to the city, but I am afraid that except for the birds, no one will be able to enter the city smoothly." ”
Du Wei was stunned.
Birds? By the way, she'd seen the Dark Guard use crows to deliver messages before, and now it would be nice if there was a bird that could deliver the message.
Wuxin seemed to guess what she was thinking, "There is snow here all year round, and it is normal for snowy weather like this, where do the birds come from." ”
Even if there were birds, they would have frozen to death long ago.
A cold wind blew, and the snowflakes made people's faces hurt.
"By the way, do you know the weather?" Du Wei's eyes suddenly lit up.
"I know a little bit about it."
"You see the direction ......of the wind now," she said, pointing to the cold sand city below the mountain, "it should be blowing towards the city, right?" ”
"Exactly." I don't know why she suddenly mentioned this, her face full of doubt.
"Now that the north wind is in full swing, I don't know how long it will blow?"
"There is often a north wind in this season, and looking at the weather, I am afraid that it will not stop for a few days." Wuxin groaned.
Du Wei suddenly turned her head and showed a sly smile: "We don't necessarily have to use birds to deliver letters, as long as they can fly, don't you say?" ”
"Can fly?" This unintentional is completely blindfolded, and it will fly...... What else can fly in this world besides birds?
"Yes, since we can't pass through the enemy from the ground, we can go through the air, and although it will take a lot of risks, I think it's worth trying." The more Du Wei spoke, the more excited she became, her big eyes shining, and she almost lost her mind when she saw it.
"Let's go, let's go back and study it, if it's feasible, we can send the news to the city before dawn."
Wind Twilight and a 100,000-strong army will reach the enemy's rear in about the day after tomorrow, and they must enter Cold Sand City before this, otherwise they will become a burden to him.
Du Wei hurriedly pulled Wuxin's arm and walked back, there was more and more snow on the ground, Du Wei was weak, and her steps were even more difficult at this time.
Unintentionally sighed, grabbed her arm with his backhand, and took her back to the camp in the wind and snow.
Linglong saw it in her eyes, and wanted to remind Du Wei not to forget her identity and not to be so close to the heartless son, but seeing the wind and snow in the sky, she finally swallowed the words back into her stomach.
Back in the tent, Du Wei instructed Linglong to get a pen and paper.
Unexpectedly, he said, "What is this doing?" ”
"Let's design our big bird." Du Wei rubbed her little hands that were red from the cold, and then lifted the pen.
watched in disbelief as Du Wei drew a big kite with a strange shape on the paper......
